In the First Book world, today was Lynda Lancaster Day!
It was with much excitement that the First Book staff celebrated the 10 year anniversary of Lynda Lancaster’s work with First Book. For the past decade Lynda has worked selflessly to connect First Book with nonprofit partners across the nation, coordinate book distributions, start Advisory Boards and a list of so many other miscellaneous undertakings!
The staff celebrated Lynda at a breakfast and spent hours telling stories and reminiscing of fun, exciting and even trying adventures over the past ten years. There was much laughter, applause, a few tears and the occasional shriek of delight!
Thank you Lynda, for all of your dedication to First Book, and most importantly to the millions of children to whom you have single-handedly provided with brand new books!
Three cheers for Lynda!!
We love you, Lynda!
It has been an honor to work alongside Lynda for all these years. She is a passionate advocate for children, an amazing connector to others in the nonprofit world, and — most importantly — a wonderful person I feel lucky to call a true friend. Thanks so much for all you do, Lynda!
